For those of you who don't know, Sean took a gap year after graduating high school to travel Europe. He met Laura (who's from Spain) in Galway, Ireland. They're living in Vilanova i la Geltru outside of Barcelona.

On our last day in Acadia, Daniel and I got up at 4:00 in the morning to go see the sunrise from the top of Cadillac Mountain. It's the highest / easternmost point in America, so we were the first people in the United States to see the sun rise that morning. Along with the hundred other people that were there, that is.

I ran across a problem on a site today where some custom voting code had stopped working correctly. Eventually, I figured out that the actual problem was due to the page being cached, so it wasn't showing the updated results. I didn't want to turn off caching so, my next step was to figure out how to turn caching off for a particular page. The Google found CacheExclude, a module that allows you to do just that-- turn caching off for specific pages.

For Karen's birthday (coming up on Thursday), we took the boys and went hiking on some trails around Harper Creek in the Wilson Creek area. We did about 6 miles, and it was a blast. The trail included a bunch of creek crossings and Sean and Daniel had a great time looking for and catching crawfish, salamanders, and newts. I caught a Northern Water Snake at the falls.

I was having a problem with using the Login block form on the home page. Error messages related to the login (e.g. "Password incorrect.", etc.) were not getting dispalyed when the login failed. They would show up only after reloading the page again.
